Oppi is about having fun giving. Handmade by Jane Trentham, every item of Oppi babywear is sewn from organic, fair trade or upcycled fabric. With each item of Oppi babywear you buy, we give to Tutela Africa; supporting family-based childcare for Mozambique's orphans and most vulnerable children.

Approximately 61% of Mozambicans still live on less than $1.25 a day (the measure of extreme poverty). This is much improved from 1996, when a national household survey indicated that 81% of the population lived in extreme poverty (The World Bank via Gapminder). Although still considered a very poor country, children and families in Mozambique are continuing to see improvements. Tutela Africa exist to be a part of that positive change.

There are greater numbers of people now living on more than $1.25 a day

The social and health impact that increased wealth can have on the lives of real families

There are few news reports at the moment which give me reason to hope, but this one does. Along with Jonny and Becky Wakely who are establishing Tutela, I am going to believe that by 2030 we are going to see the end of extreme poverty for families and children of Mozambique.
